THE ST. SIMoN's LUMBER COMPANY.
This is probably the largest establishment
OF the kind in the South. The company,
besides owning 5000 acres of pine land
near Eastman, make purchases of timber
constantly from Darien and other points on
the, Altamaha river. At this time they
have on hand awaiting shipment as fast as
possible no less than
FOUR MILLION FEET
OF merchantable lumber, which will be sent
TO eoastwise ports and South America as
rapidly as it can be loaded.
The cutting capacity of the two mills is
about $4,000 feet per day, and sometimes
no less than
NINE SHIPS
may be seen at their wharves receiving
cargoes for every part of the world
The proprietors have sunk an artesan
we'll which supplies all the water needed for
the machinery and twelve hydrants besides,
which by the mere force of atmospheric
pressure could inundate not only the build
lngs, but every pile Of lumber on the yards
They employ $50 hands, and the pay roll
is about 5000 per month. The cost Of the
plant was over 100000.
Quite fiourishing village has grown up
around the mills, with neat church, school
house, post Office and store. The population
is about 800.
So much on this freezing day for what
ought to be a semi-tropical isle But these

Westminster Abbey's Monuments.


Some of the monuments tower up to the
height of twenty feet or more, perhaps to
the height of thirty feet Great Britain is
carved all over the bases of them weeping
for her sons. Judging by the number Of
these sons her lamentations are inceSsant,
and she would seem to be kind of profess
sional funeral mourner. The lion Is seen
disconsolate, wiping his eye with his paw.
The unicorn is in a deep melancholy. The
statesmen rise up in their robes of peers
calmly gazing off into the depths of the
cathedral. Here and there some entirely
forgotten person has made the marble howl.
One tomb represents a mans wife snatched
away by Death, who is coming out of the
grave in his bones and shroud to claim her,
and the husband is squaring off at him, as
nearly as | can recollect The attempt to
make marble do too much on funeral occa-
sions often leads to an emotion In the specta-
tor between excitement, wonder and smiles.
Some actors are put in here like Garrick.
The monument to Shakespeare has been
often copied, but is poor composition, and
it represents Shakespeare leaning over a
kind of table as he stands where his play
books are being studied. Perhaps the most
effective thing in the poets line is Ben
Jonson's tomb, which merely says: "Oh, rare
